No, Rich. having passed in a hospital there would be no doubt about cause of death, here he would probably have a funeral tomorrow at the latest. I’ll try to know something about the funeral tomorrow.

No worries Pedro, I don't know about anyone else here but my head is still spinning from all of this news

He would be too short to get on it.

I'm 5'9 so not too short for most bikes, id probably struggle with enduro bikes though

@Pedro do we know what time pete left us yesterday?

Doing the same with twin # 2 bike rm250...funny both boys raised in the same manner ..the one that just moved out with his girlfriend was the handy guy and did all of the maintenance on both of their bikes...he a third year apprentice working for a Kia dealership in town...and twin # 2 is completely useless with a wrench...it's not because they haven't seen me working on my bikes...one has no interest at all in mechanical stuff...

That does not compute..... mechanical is the only way to be is it not

I think it will depend on the arrangements Lyn , if it’s a funeral in Spain it will probably be done tomorrow or next day.

They don’t prolong it in Mediterranean countries

That's very quick to arrange a funeral, here it takes weeks

Any help I can give you just ask @Pedro  . I expect I feel like many here in that I feel a bit useless , I love to go to his funeral or do something for him but can't do a lot from here  

I feel exactly that, there's not much we can do from this end but something is better than nothing, or at least feels it

Omg that looks like it's gonna take another week before your finished with that...I think your stalling hopping the site will crash...

Far from hoping this site goes down the pan, but as you can see I'm a tad busy

I'm currently part way through putting up skyes new chest of drawers

and the computer is currently 

I wonder what he'd be saying right now if he was here to respond to all of us moping around the place. 

He'd probably be calling us all soft cunts and to get on with it 

Might I suggest that we should probably increase number of people on the team running the forum just to help out so it's not all just sat on 2 people's shoulders

Indeed, he was great at making these run, had great pleasure in providing a place for a few people spread all over the world to meet. And in fact no other forums have the same kind of vibe, we did share our dislike for a couple of members (I'm glad she's gone, he wasn't) but all he really wanted for the place was to keep it alive.

I know nothing of internet and computers and servers, but I know you do, so now that you're running it please remember that there's a few people here who would like to help with costs if there's any involved, I would.

I'll second this statement as I'm sure a few others would too, I think we owe it to Pete to keep things going

Do you really think you could get a video link to work?

A video link to a funeral?

We did that for some of my nans friends who couldn't attend

8 minutes ago, Pedro said:

I sent Pete a Whatsapp, same as ever, when I knew he got taken to hospital, and he replied. Then the next day, yesterday I asked how he was doing and there was no reply. I didn’t bother him because he probably needed the rest and I knew his son was flying in. Then last night I started to worry because he usually replies, so this morning I asked if he was better and his son Scott replied to me saying Peter had passed yesterday. I asked for no further details.

In times like these I choose to leave people be and managed their affairs. Scott is now probably dealing with Pete’s company, his brother, Allison ( who is a jewel), and I prefer to not add to that burden.

from the timing I assume his funeral is either today or tomorrow, I can ask for you if you want to attend.

Agreed they have more than enough to get on with without further questions from us on details. 

I'd like to know about the funeral and if there could be a video link to it 

I don't want this place to go anywhere, I think for petes legacy we should do all possible to see it doesn't go down the pan.

I'm sure there's a way of doing this

He will still be working wherever he's gone either that or he's gone to live that retirement dream on his super yacht

A video is worth a thousand words.

I'll get the computer set up today and sort it, iv been bloody busy 

This is absolutely shocking news, deepest sympathy goes out to all the family. 

I have no other words....

Yeah hopefully he's OK, but what worries me is how would we find out if the worst had happened?
